https://polimetla.wordpress.com/2018/03/13/choosing-school-for-students/#respondTue, 13 Mar 2018 17:40:21 +0000http://polimetla.wordpress.com/?p=4438Bottom-up approach
No fixed future plans. Figure out what kid wants to be during the course of study.

If you have a lot of money, you want to give freedom to student
{
Choose IB Syllabus
}
If you want kids to grow in a cheerful environment without exams/stress
{
Choose Waldorf education
}
If you decided that your kid is going to study Engineering/Medicine/Account/Others only in India
{
Choose CBSE
}

Top-down approach:
Think what they want to become and plan from top to bottom approach.

If you want your kid to go abroad after 12th Grade
{
Choose IB
}
if you want your kid to go to Engineering/Medicine/IIT study only in India
{
Choose CBSE for 1 to 10th.
Choose State Syllabus for 11th and 12th. Or CBSE is fine.
Move them to FIITJEE from 6th Grade onwards.
}
If you want your kid to choose his own along Waldorf
{
Choose Waldorf
}

Elementary (1 to 5)
High School (6 to 10)
Senior High School (11 to 12)

Logically 9th to 12th – 4 years is crucial for college. Let them stay on same track if possible.

Extra-Curricular
Elementary Level – Let them try everything.
High School and Above – Let them practice and focus on few, where they will enjoy and excel

Note:
Take help of a coach to find right sport for the kid based on kids interest, health, physical structure,…etc
Take help of a coach to guide students in respective art

Few Points:
Don’t force students to choose
Inspire them
Let them choose and enjoy. They are not responsible for the failure. Help them to figure it out.
Ideas will change every year. Give freedom and respect.
Parents financial situation changes always, be ready to face unknowns.
Invest wisely for students future. Don’t burn all the oil just for Elementary.
